The Thermo Fischer Scientific ARL 9900 IntelliPower series of X-ray spectrometers offers rapid and accurate analysis of solid samples of various kinds.
Modular construction and a range of options allow the ARL 9900 to be specified to suit any particular process-control application.
Its patented technology combines two X-ray techniques - X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) - in one instrument.
This makes the ARL 9900 highly productive as it can take the place of two separate instruments.
The ARL 9900 can detect the presence of up to 83 elements (from B to U, 5 to 92 in the Mendeleev table) in concentrations ranging from parts per million to 100 per cent.
Advanced integrated software bestows fast commissioning of new methods and permits quick reporting and storing of the analytical results where it matters most.
Installation requirements are straightforward and can be easily accommodated in most industrial environments.
A high degree of automation and digital control make the ARL 9900 easy to use.
Specified with the appropriate automatic sample introduction equipment, it can even be programmed to conduct continuous process monitoring in unattended mode with direct connection to automatic sample preparation machines.
The ARL 9900 range is designed to meet the requirements of industries where fast process monitoring is critical to quality control.
Among them, this includes those producing or processing: metals (iron, steel, aluminium, copper, and their alloys, titanium, magnesium, slags and sinters); mining (ores, minerals, limestone and beach sands); cement; by-products; and refractories and others.
